4 Recreation Spaces in Murray

Posted Jan 24, 2025 by Garbett Homes

Centrally located in the Salt Lake Valley, and with easy access to both I-15 and public transit. Murray is a popular place to buy a new home. But what about after you buy the new home and start living your life there? What is there to do in your new home city? Today, we at Garbett Homes would like to give you a preview of some of the recreation opportunities the city of Murray has to offer.  

Murray Park Amphitheater
 
Murray Park Amphitheater 
Located in Murray City Park and nestled between the creek and scenic cottonwood trees, the Murray Park Amphitheater is a community treasure. Giving you and your fellow Murrayites an opportunity to enjoy the performing arts in your own backyard. Enjoy concerts, plays and more under summer skies from May – September. These magical evenings are sure to add to your life and make your new city feel just a little more cozy.  
 
Jordan River Parkway

Jordan River Parkway 
Spanning three counties this 40 mile urban park is one of the lesser known treasures that Utah has to offer its residents. Murray’s portion of this parkway offers a pedestrian trail, golf course, canoe launches, and more. Granting you a convenient space to unplug for a few hours or even the whole day minutes away from your backyard. The Jordan River Parkway will be a great addition to your life’s routine when you move to Murray. 
 
The Sports Mall

The Sports Mall 
When it comes to recreation, while city funded amenities are important, they shouldn’t be the only thing. This fitness facility is more than a traditional gym experience, offering martial arts courses, accommodations for many racquetball sports including pickleball. Ensuring that whether you’re starting fresh on your fitness journey, or want to have a more local community feel to your new home gym, The Sports Mall has what you need.  
 Desert Star Playhouse
Desert Star Playhouse 
From Pioneer Theater to Hale Center Theater and beyond, the Salt Lake Valley has plenty of options to explore the many aspects of the human condition through live theater. Desert Star Playhouse sets itself apart from its peers by not only offering dinner along with their plays, but by going all in on the laughs. For over 30 years, Desert Star’s pop culture parody shows have left audiences in stitches and kept them fed. Give them a visit and find out why dinner and a show is more than a cliché but a classic combination. 
 
Buying a new home isn’t a journey’s end, it’s a beginning. One where you’ll find new things to do and new friends to do them with.
